Strategies to increase response rate and reduce non-response bias in population health research: a series of randomised controlled trials during a large COVID-19 study by Atchison, CJ, Gilby, N, Pantelidou, G, Clemens, S, Pickering, K, Chadeau-Hyam, M, Ashby, D, Barclay, WS, Cooke, G, Darzi, A, Riley, S, Donnelly, C, Ward, H, Elliott, P

“…</p> <br> <p><strong>Methods:</strong> Over 19 rounds, a random sample of individuals aged 5 years and older from the general population in England were invited by mail to complete an online questionnaire and return a swab for SARS-CoV-2 testing. We carried out several nested randomised controlled experiments to measure the impact on response rates of different interventions, including (1) variations in invitation and reminder letters and text messages, and (2) the offer of a conditional monetary incentive to return a swab, reporting absolute changes in response and relative response rate (RRR with 95% Confidence Intervals).…”

Diagnostic performance of GENEDIA W and ActiveXpress+ COVID-19 antigens tests among symptomatic individuals in Peru and The United Kingdom by Palomino-Padilla, S, Finch, L, de Vos, M, Savage, H, Villa-Castillo, L, Hayward, G, Cook, E, LSTM diagnostics group, UTB-IMTAvH group, CONDOR steering group, Escadafal, C, Body, R, Adams, ER, Ugarte-Gil, C, Cubas-Atienzar, AI

“…Analytical evaluation of both Ag-RDTs was assessed using serial dilutions of direct culture supernatant of a clinical SARS-CoV-2 isolate from the B.1.1.7 lineage.</p> <p><strong>Results: </strong>For GENEDIA brand, the values of overall sensitivity and specificity were 60.4% [95% CI 52.4–67.9%], and 99.2% [95% CI 97.6–99.7%] respectively; and for Active Xpress+ the overall values of sensitivity and specificity were 66.2% [95% CI 54.0–76.5%], and 99.6% [95% CI 97.9–99.9%] respectively. …”

Physiological stress responses and meat quality of rabbits subjected to different road transportation and slaughter methods by Khadijah, Nakyinsige

“…At d 1, HS exhibited significantly lower shear force values than GK although at d 7, the values for the two slaughter methods did not differ (p>0.05). …”

Critical events detection and management in complex networks by Yu, Yi

“…Sudden crash of social networks is another critical event which, as we shall demonstrate in detail, can also be viewed as spreading of decision making: an individual’s decision of leaving a social network may be affected by the decisions of his/her neighbors. We propose a simple model where an individual may decide to leave an OSN either when s/he has too few connections left, or has lost a large enough proportion of connections which shall encourage him/her to leave the current OSN and join its competitor. …”

Surface wave interaction with a vertical viscoelastic barrier by Bi, Cheng, Wu, Mao See, Law, Adrian Wing-Keung

“…As the regime changes from plate-like to membrane-like, the wave transmission diminishes and the sheet boundary displacement together with the flexural strain and shear force reduce, while the corresponding resonating wavenumber increases instead. …”
